The building models of the police station and hospital are reused in the games' Portland counterparts (the LCPD police station and Sweeney General Hospital in Portland View). However, the Hope Medical College building is significantly extended in height than Sweeney General Hospital.

Glitches

A road in the south-east part of Pike Creek borders over Wichita Gardens, and is erroneously named as such. This can make missions such as Firefighter and Paramedic difficult or impossible in some circumstances as the game thinks the two suburbs are physically located next to each other, and gives you a very short time span such as 30 seconds or 1 minute to get from one place to the other. Since there are only two roads (not counting a ramp) to the lower section, you may have to cancel a mission or simply fail it as there isn't enough time to drive down to Wichita Gardens.
